EgyptoloJen Writes and Travels the Road to her Defense, with Input from Viewers Like You!

About

This is The Interactive Dissertation newsletter, part of a multi-platform outreach project. I’m Jen, a PhD Candidate at the Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World at Brown University. My dissertation is a study of ancient Egyptian royal “living-rock” stelae with an emphasis on landscape, materiality, and spatial language.

My research is supported by a Mellon Mediterranean Regional Research Fellowship from the Council of American Overseas Research Centers, a U.S. Dept. of State ECA Fellowship through the American Research Center in Egypt, and a SPARC Fieldwork Award from the Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies.

Here’s a video of me speaking about my outreach project, from Brown’s Research Matters! public talk event on November 5, 2016:
